STOVE OR FU RNACE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters PatentNo. 505,449, dated September 26, 1893.

Application tiled January 24, 1893. Serial No. l159.589. (No model.)

To a/ZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EDWARD FAnEs, of Boston, county of Suffolk, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Stoves or Furnaces, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters on the drawings representing like parts.

This invention has for its object to improve the construction of the stove or furnace shown and described in my application for Letters Patent, Serial No. 437,934, filed June 5, 1892, and my invention consists in improvements in the topwall of the fire pot or chamber, whereby the smoke or Boating particles may be better or more perfectly consumed.

Figure 1, shows in front elevation and partial section a stove or furnace embodying this invention; Fig. 2, a right hand side elevation and partial section of the stove shown in Fig. l.

The tire pot or chamber comprising the front wall, rear Wall, end Walls and top Wall, and the series of parallel vertical ribs c, formed upon the inner side of said. rear wall, presenting guide passages or iiues for the Iiame and products of combustion, and the thin smoke consuming chamber rising from said lire pot directly above the said guide passages or flues, and preferably having a series of small passages communicating with and forming continuations of said guide passages or flnes are all substantially as in the aforesaid application.

The top wall e of the tire pot has formed upon its under side a series of parallel ribs e', arranged opposite the ribs c, the bottoms or outer edges of said ribs e declining toward the rear wall of the 're pot so that the greater height is left for the fire pot or chamber at or near the front Wall. By means of these ribs guide passages are formed for directing the dame and products of combustion to the smoke consuming chamber, and as the ribs become very hot, many of the floating particles are burned while passing through said passages. By declining the outer edges of said ribs as best shown in Fig. 2, it will be seen that greater depth is obtained for said passages as they approach the rear Wall. I do not however desire to confine my invention to any particular shape or proportions of said ribs e'.

I claiml. In a stove or furnace, the ire pot or chamber, the top wall e of which has a series of parallel arranged ribs e', upon its under side, and the thin smoke consuming chamber rising from the re pot, substantially as described.

2. In astove or furnace, the fire pot or chamber, the top Walle of which has a series of parallel arranged ribs e', upon its under side, declining toward the rear end, and the 'thin smoke consuming chamber rising from the fire pot at said rear end, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

EDWARD FALES.
